Hello

war59312 is correct I believe....

the 1.5 you talk of is for X98 and Millenium, both DOGS to start with...

You can run more ram, but have to write a reg entry to only use 1.5 or 98 and milly will just keep rebooting....

What BH said PLUS the fact the the whole 9X platform had a huge memory leak and anything over 512MB of ram was pointless because it just leaked away :P
